SAFETY
NOTE:
The TPMS is not intended to replace normal tire care
and maintenance, or to provide warning of a tire failure
or condition.
The TPMS should not be used as a tire pressure gauge
while adjusting your tire pressure.
Driving on a significantly underinflated tire causes the
tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Underinfla
-
tion also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and
may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.
The TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire mainte
-
nance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain
correct tire pressure using an accurate tire pressure
gauge, even if underinflation has not reached the level
to trigger illumination of the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System Warning Light.
Seasonal temperature changes will affect tire pres
-
sure, and the TPMS will monitor the actual tire pres
-
sure in the tire.
Premium System
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) uses wireless
technology with wheel rim mounted electronic sensors to
monitor tire pressure levels. Sensors, mounted to each
wheel as part of the valve stem, transmit tire pressure
readings to the receiver module.
NOTE:
It is particularly important for you to check the tire
pressure in all of the tires on your vehicle monthly and to
maintain the proper pressure.
The TPMS consists of the following components:
Receiver module
Four Tire Pressure Monitoring System sensors
Various Tire Pressure Monitoring System messages,
which will display in the instrument cluster display
Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning Light
Tire Pressure Monitoring System Low
Pressure Warnings
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning
Light will illuminate in the instrument cluster
and a chime will sound when tire pressure is
low in one or more of the four active road tires.
In addition, the instrument cluster will display a "Tire Low"
message, an “Inflate to XX” message, and a graphic
showing the pressure values of each tire with the low tire
pressure values highlighted or in a different color.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System Low Pressure Warning
Should this occur, you should stop as soon as possible and
inflate the tires with low pressure (those highlighted or in a
different color in the instrument cluster display graphic) to
the vehicle’s recommended cold placard pressure value, as
shown in the “Inflate to XX” message. Once the system
receives the updated tire pressures, the system will
automatically update, the pressure values in the graphic
display in the instrument cluster will stop being highlighted
or return to their original color, and the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System Warning Light will turn off.
CAUTION!
The TPMS has been optimized for the original equip
-
ment tires and wheels. TPMS pressures and warning
have been established for the tire size equipped on
your vehicle. Undesirable system operation or sensor
damage may result when using replacement equip
-
ment that is not of the same size, type, and/or style.
The TPMS sensor is not designed for use on after
-
market wheels and may contribute to a poor overall
system performance or sensor damage. Customers
are encouraged to use Original Equipment Manufac
-
turer (OEM) wheels to ensure proper TPMS feature
operation.
Using aftermarket tire sealants may cause the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) sensor to
become inoperable. After using an aftermarket tire
sealant it is recommended that you take your vehicle
to an authorized dealer to have your sensor function
checked.
After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure always
reinstall the valve stem cap. This will prevent mois
-
ture and dirt from entering the valve stem, which
could damage the TPMS sensor.
